5.00It was so much fun ! It was a last minute thing my mom and I decided to do on our vacation but it was so worth it. Hunter the captain was great and both Jens were awesome at spotting the dolphins and pointing them out to us. Also I didn’t know till I got on the boat there was a glass bottom ln the bottom floor which was cool.
Great way to spend some...

3.00Crew could have been a little bit more entertaining. The ride got boring and people were falling asleep. They had the radio station playing instead of a nice put together playlist to enjoy of clean greatest hits. So for lots of the time commercials were playing. Also you could barely hear when he tried to give facts for around the area tour, I’m not sure if it was his microphone or what but I could barely hear him. This experience could've been awesome with a more entertaining crew. The views were amazing, getting to see the dolphins was also amazing and lots of fun.
Horrible Experience!

1.00We had a terrifying experience! I will never go out in the waters of Florida after this! First, I purchased the tickets online and arrived to find out our scheduled trip had been canceled due to not having enough tickets purchased. That should have been our red flag. Instead, we went ahead and scheduled the next one, which was at 6 pm sunset. After boarding we noticed dark clouds appearing, however, we figured the captain knew what he was doing, and we would not go out if it wasn’t safe. Wrong!!! We got caught in a storm from Hell in the middle of the ocean!! The crew never bothered to assure the passengers, instead, they gathered in a safe corner of the ship without any concern for the safety of their passengers. After sitting out the wild storm, with strong winds, heavy rain, thunder, and lightning, which was about an hour of torture. The captain continued the tour instead of heading back to land. At this point, no one cared about seeing a glimpse of a dolphin!! I would NOT recommend this tour to anyone!! Good Luck!
Relaxing boat ride

5.00Had a great time. Bring hat, sunglasses and a small cooler with water as they charge 2.00 a bottle. It is bumpy at times but comfortable
